The Importance of Shoreline Stabilization

Shoreline Stabilization is important for all lakes; however, with respect to non naturally-occurring, or man made lakes it’s even more important for guarding against erosion, protecting the precious aquatic life, and for maintaining those spectacular views. Erosion control, dredging, and shoreline stabilization from Knoxville Barge are critical to protecting the land and water you love so much. These services help keep the area protected for the future, ensure a healthy environment for fish and other wildlife, and protect your property from the extremes that erosion can cause.

If you are looking for help to stabilize your shoreline the right way, protecting your home and family and improving water access for boating or swimming, don’t hesitate to reach out to Knoxville Barge.

Dredging Services

Every day when the water brushes against the shoreline, it takes a beating. This can cause it to lose its slope and overall shape. Over time, sediment from the shoreline washes into the lake, changing the lake floor. Dredging services help maintain the shoreline and prevent this type of erosion, so your shoreline stays stable and beautiful. Dredging is also important when planning for a new dock. A properly dredge shoreline ensures the dock is built on a solid, stable surface, so you will get many more years of use out of it.

At Knoxville Barge, we offer hydraulic and mechanical dredging services, depending on the needs of your specific shoreline area. We have a team of marine contractors who are dredging experts, ready to help you ensure your shoreline is properly protected.

Lake Erosion Control

A stable shoreline is the best defense against erosion. Knoxville Barge knows the lakes in the surrounding area well and will ensure that the proper structures are put in place to minimize erosion on your property. To do this, we utilize a variety of techniques, including:

• Rock walls (riprap)
• Geotextile matting
• Riparian zone restoration
• Shoreline steps and ramps
• Custom retaining walls

Since no lake side is the same we have several other services that are tailored specifically to help those who want to protect their shorelines from erosion.
